FTP, which denotes File Transfer Protocol, represents one of the most famous ways to upload and download web files between a PC and a server. With an FTP program such as FileZilla, you can set up a connection to your hosting account and drag ‘n’ drop files or entire directories in both directions and the software will handle all the rest. There are several advantages of employing FTP, including the ability to restart an upload/download when there’s a problem with the FTP connection and the ability to use different FTP accounts. Thanks to the latter option, you can set up FTP users that can access only particular folders in your web hosting account, but no other folders, e-mails or any other information, which makes it the perfect solution especially when you have to give a web designer access, for example. You can also use an FTP account with popular web design apps such as FrontPage or Dreamweaver and upload the websites that you have created directly from them, without the need to resort to 3rd-party software.
